Manage episode 418314131 series 3485950
Welcome to the second episode of the second series of The Parson and the Songmen. In this series we follow the Reverend Sabine Baring-Gould on further folk song collecting trips, not this time in Devon, but in neighbouring Cornwall. In this episode we visit Helston, in the west of the county, to find out about another Cornish celebration of the arrival of spring, Helston Flora Day.
